What are some muscle memory training methods?

Muscles are one of the most important tissues in the body. Muscles can bring strength to the body. Modern research has found that muscles have a certain memory and can bring certain benefits to people's various actions. For example, athletes can rely on muscle memory to improve reaction speed, etc. In order to strengthen muscle memory, scientific training methods are needed. Let's take a look at the muscle memory training methods.

Muscle memory. The muscles of the human body have a memory effect. After the same action is repeated many times, the muscles will form a conditioned reflex. Human muscles acquire memory very slowly, but once acquired, they are also forgotten very slowly. When it comes to table tennis, the muscle memory effect has both advantages and disadvantages.

Freeze frame method. When your muscles are resisting some movements, you can freeze one movement and maintain the correct and standard movement for one minute. It is best to look in the mirror and watch your correct movement until your muscles become sore and stiff. After you relax, continue to freeze the movement and practice repeatedly until the movement is accurate.

Freeze the movement so that the muscles are fixed in one environment and do not move. The muscles become sore. At this time, the brain will automatically remember this uncomfortable movement, naturally coordinate, and slowly allow the muscles to adapt, thus completing the process of muscle memory.

Eyes closed method. If your movements are not standard when hitting the target, you can close your eyes and think about the technical movements in your mind first, what to do first and what to do next, and then perform the movements at 50% of the speed, and let others tell you whether the movements are correct. If not, correct the movements. If you repeat this action correctly, you can accelerate to 60% after dozens of times. If the action is correct, you can increase the speed to 80%, 90%, until you reach full speed.

The entire muscle memory process is done with eyes closed, and the same applies when correcting movements. When your eyes are closed, there is less external interference, and it is easier for the brain and body to accept and remember a certain action.

The method of aggravation. If the movements are discontinuous and feel disconnected somewhere, you need to use the weighted method. Put the weight on the hand or leg that will be doing the movement, starting slowly and gradually increasing the speed. By practicing repeatedly, the part that doesn't exert force will naturally exert force. If there is no effect, increase the weight appropriately.
